READ: Isaiah 28:9-14
“By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” – 1 John 5:2-3
Do not say that it is impossible to walk by faith. God has made it possible for you to walk by faith by creating a walk that involves many little steps. Faith is not the obeying of one huge near-impossible jump. Faith is rather the obedience of one small step. Think of all the heroes of faith God used. Most of them took one small step. His commandments are quite possible for you to obey because they are always one small step at a time.
God will not tell you to build a church with five thousand members as your first commission. He will probably tell you to witness, win souls, start a fellowship and learn how to preach. As you obey these little steps, He will lead you to your destiny. To have faith is to obey one small step at a time. That small step is the act of faith that will change your life.
What did Rahab do to be called a hero of faith? Rahab, the harlot, gave her house to visitors. (Hebrews11:31). She provided the services of a harlot to Israeli spies. This was something she was used to doing. The only difference was to have had Israeli boys in her house for the night.
What did Moses do to become a man of faith? He threw a stick down and it turned to a snake. (Exodus 4:2-4). I am sure he had thrown many sticks down before that time.
Faith is always a small step! What is the next small step for you? God wants you to do something and it will never be a big thing. It will be series of small steps. The next small step will take you higher than you imagined.
